  1. I've got this guy in my neck of the woods. Yeah, I'd trust him without a moment of hesitation http://mashable.com/2014/04/10/ohio-police-chiefs-letter-to-facebook-trolls-will-save-us-all/ Owned by Remi #?
  2. I'm neutral. It falls into the same bucket as metal into head. Too loud and harsh for my taste, but I get it's appeal. Owned by Remi #?
  3. We'll... If I was in a bad situation and I had to chose between a random stranger or a police officer for help, I'd opt for the police officer. What would you do? Owned by Remi #?
  4. Too soon Owned by Remi #?
  5. Honestly... I've never had a feeling of dread about finding anything. I've just thought that it would be a bonus feature to collect my stuff. Owned by Remi #?
  6. Well, if they deleted *all* the posts, this would be a pretty boring forum Owned by Remi #?
  7. Can't disagree with that... was Publix *paying* the people they denied work to for the holiday? If so, great. If not, they may have just been taking advantage of a holiday to cut hours for people who really need the hours. Was it a paid holiday? Owned by Remi #?
  8. I don't know if he's an asshole, but I can guess that if he reacts to a little ribbing by calling someone a smart ass, he's not going to get a lot of help and he must have pretty thin skin. Owned by Remi #?
  9. Well... you're off to a good start if you intended to A) - troll the BASE community or B) - troll the BASE community. Owned by Remi #?
  10. Looks like you've stocked up, on commas, that's good, you won't, run out of commas, on, Easter, Sunday. Owned by Remi #?
  11. Oh... who knows. Maybe it will just not fit you just enough that you could possibly fall out of it. Or maybe you won't fall out of it, but it'll be just loose enough that you'll still be trying to pry the reserve handle out of your left ear while you crater in. What do they know? They probably are way too conservative about what fits. Owned by Remi #?
  12. Not so much, seriously. The manufacturer uses the measurements to decide what container / harness size that they already make is the best fit. Owned by Remi #?
  13. I think ya got Rick Rolled Owned by Remi #?
  14. Sustain? I think you might do well to invest in a dictionary. Maybe you meant survive? Owned by Remi #?
  15. That's as true as saying that skydivers are suicidal. Owned by Remi #?
  16. Yeah, exactly. Britain *is* probably one of the most homogeneous places on the planet, and all of Europe was massively influenced by Roman occupation. The thing is that a *lot* of people don't get is that "Roman" didn't mean "Italian Guy" The Romans depending on incorporating the people they conquered as soldiers and civilians rather than just overwhelming them with home-grown troops. A Roman soldier born in Africa probably wasn't just a "Roman" born in Africa... he was probably at least 50% African. All of this was happening 1500-2000 years ago on a slower time scale. It's idiotic to worry about it. Owned by Remi #?
  17. People who think that the 'white race' is under threat probably also don't believe that we didn't start out 'white'. I think that it's pointless to take the conversation any farther than that. Owned by Remi #?
  18. That's a GREAT article. Thanks! Owned by Remi #?
  19. Well: If you don't cherry pick your months as much... NOAA also says "The combined average temperature over global land and ocean surfaces for December–February was the eighth highest on record for this period, at 1.03°F (0.57°C) above the 20th century average of 53.8°F (12.1°C).

  20. That's a great pic Owned by Remi #?
  21. There isn't enough data to know if they're doing anything specifically wrong, but if you look at combined fatalities over the last five years between Ausralia and the US, Australia accounts for about 15% of the total where it only has about 7% the population of the US. Either they have twice the per capita of jumpers as the US... or it's possible that they're doing something wrong (or just different). Owned by Remi #?
  22. The course should have spotters / lifeguards watching non-swimmers. Just tell your friend to tell his friend to let the instructor know he can't swim well Owned by Remi #?
  23. Can he handle 6ft? SIM: 1. Wet training a. should be conducted following a class on theory b. should take place in a suitable environment such as a swimming pool, lake, or other body of water at least six feet deep c. meets the USPA B license training requirements for intentional water landings Owned by Remi #?
  24. Right so... you're asking a group of people who are *paying in* to the insurance you're asking about if you can lie and basically steal their money. Do you get that? Never mind that you don't understand what the insurance is for... It's a douche move. ETA: Everyone here understands what "re injure" myself means. Seriously. If you were on the up-and-up, you wouldn't be mentioning the MC accident. Owned by Remi #?
